I'm looking for a 26.8 seatpost, ideally a plain alloy aero. Nothing too expensive... Prefer a pick up in south London or post. Cheers.

Still looking.......

Wingedangel has kindly offered a 26.6, does anyone have experience putting a 26.6 post into 26.8 tube...? Can I tighten it up ok or will it be more of a sausage down a hallway type of thing?

I have a generic Kalloy non aero post 400mm long.

A 26.6 will not tighten fully and will slip without a coke can shim.

should be ok if you shim it. better off with the right size though.

I've got Number 50 from Hilary's thread which turned out too short for me. I've given it a little polish and you can have it for the £12 I paid.

Might be too short for me too rapepper. It's for a gf build, but the further along I get the more I like it, so I think I'll need a longish post...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
